I dont have that exact model but I believe it will be the same deck mechanism. Over on the right of the video head there is a big cog gear, the switch is under that. There are 2 ways into the thing, remove that gear and get in that way, I dont advise that because you need to retime the unit after that. The other way is remove the entire deck, its only 4 or so screws and a few plugs. Turn it over. You should see two cogwgeels half way under a steel plate. Carefully remove the steel plate. DO NOT turn the cogwheels. With the plate removed mark the teeth of the cogwheels where they mesh so that you can put them back exactly as they are now. I cant remember if you gave to take both wheels off but the one you need is on the right. with that off, you now see the mode switch, a round piece of plastic about 2cm across. Check exactly where that is as per clockwise, mark it so you can get it exactly back to the same tooth. Once you are sure of that, pull the top off. Its got a central shaft with teeth that expand on the other side so you need to put reasonable pressure on it to pull it off, take care not to damage the fingers of the switch which are on the bit you are pulling off. Now clean it all relubricate and rebuild. The trick is take your time and mark everything exactly before you take it off. Tandy etc should have cleaner lubricant or silicone grease.
